What type of rifle is that Ripp......certainly a very fancy piece of kit?
Is it a Winchester 85 with a fancy lever to load/unload?
Unusual scope too, certainly looks period that's for sure!

Off of his site:

This is a schuetzen rifle we did a while back. It is a take down and chambered for 22 LR and 17 WSM.
